Bing 'n' Bowie

I love this video for two reasons. First, The Little Drummer Boy was one of my favorite Christmas cartoons when I was a kid, though I can't seem to remember if it was cel or puppet animation. Second of all, there was probably no one less appropriate to sing a hymn to the Baby Jesus in 1977 than David Bowie.

Knowles' Laws

1. Whenever a controversy over symbolism erupts in the media, it's usually disguising another hidden symbolic message altogether.

2. The probability that a UFO story is a deliberate hoax or intentional misidentification is correlative to the amount of mainstream media coverage it receives.

3. The more convoluted or abstract the motive or the objective in a conspiracy theory is, the less likely that theory is to be true.
